Germany and Croatia should be good but still, this is a group to expect an upset from.

Germany has to be a lock as they hit the lottery by placing in this group. I ll go with Poland for the second place with a slight surprise.

germany seems to be getting back to that football machine, i think they are not only favorite for winning their group, but for winning it all.

i think croatia has some preassure, they eliminated england, so everybody is expecting them to get far in the euro.

austria, meh. poland has a good coach and good players, but i don't think they will have what it takes to make the big step.

Germany/Croatia move on easily.
Austria may tie Poland, since they are the home team......

Germany finishes with 9 points and at least +7 goal differential, what a cakewalk.

Croatia shud finish 2nd pretty easily.

Funny how in a competition of this level we'll actually get to see such a crap matchup as Austria-Poland :o

I can't wait for Euro2008, I'll be in Europe during the tournament.
The Germans always end up in the easiest group....
Thanks to Croatia we can enjoy Russian football in June....

I think germany will win it easily. don't take that game yesterday vs belarus seriously - we were only testing some options.

and as we all know germany is or was always a tournament team. barrying any injuries or suspensions I see us advancing to the semis w/o any bigger problems

Croatia I think will choke this tourney and it will be Poland joining the Germans.
